Radio-Collared Whitetail Buck - Shenandoah National Park, VA
Meet Victim V7, not quite a mature Buck yet, but a victim just the same of the so-called 'CWD study' that the Shenandoah National Park administration has inflicted onto its very own Big Meadows Whitetail Deer herd.
The average Buck here lives to be 7-8 years of age, so being this collar will remain on his neck for 5-7 years, means that he will live his remaining days with it on and die with it on. As will all the other Bucks they have captured and collared, which is not only contained to the Big Meadows area, but in other areas of the Central District as well as areas in the North District. It's sort of like a life sentence with no chance of parole, wouldn't you agree?
This project is by far one of the biggest screw-ups that modern day SNP has generated to date. Why can't they just come clean and reveal the whole truth behind this instead of trying to 'paint a pretty picture' about CWD assessment? We all know it goes far beyond this.
LATEST UPDATES
Good news: Ol' Rutter has been seen and photographed, so he is alive and well. 1 of the 3 missing big Bucks has also been spotted and photographed in the past week (The Wide 8) and fortunately he does not have a collar on (yet).
Not so good news: 2 of those 3 big Bucks have yet to be seen since this all started - one of those being the big guy known as KING. I sure hope both of those Bucks are also okay and uncollared, but only time will tell. The next few weeks is peak rut activity here - so we will see what unfolds.

PORTSAID, EGYPT - FEBRUARY 1: An army officer cheers protesters as they pass by a military check point
-
Thousands went down to the streets on Friday in memory of the dozens killed in clashes with security forces, also in solidarity with local football fans sentenced to death.
Protesters demanded the downfall of President Mohamed Morsi and called for the army to take over. Some protesters even demanded the independence of Porsaid - to be a separate country from Egypt.
The violence started after 21 football fans were sentenced to death for their involvement in last year's stadium riot that left 74 dead.
Army was deployed to the streets after Morsi announced a curfew - a curfew defied by protesters - to be imposed in Portsaid, Ismailia and Suez.

Key sentence: Imagining something is better than remembering something. (John Irwing, The World According To Garp)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Wind is ghosting around the house tonight
and as I lean against the door of sleep
I begin to think about the first person to dream,
how quiet he must have seemed the next morning
as the others stood around the fire
draped in the skins of animals
talking to each other only in vowels,
for this was long before the invention of consonants.
He might have gone off by himself to sit
on a rock and look into the mist of a lake
as he tried to tell himself what had happened,
how he had gone somewhere without going,
how he had put his arms around the neck
of a beast that the others could touch
only after they had killed it with stones,
how he felt its breath on his bare neck.
Then again, the first dream could have come
to a woman, though she would behave,
I suppose, much the same way,
moving off by herself to be alone near water,
except that the curve of her young shoulders
and the tilt of her downcast head
would make her appear to be terribly alone,
and if you were there to notice this,
you might have gone down as the first person
to ever fall in love with the sadness of another.

HM Pentonville is a Category B/C prison holding adult males remanded by local magistrates' and crown court, and those serving short sentences or beginning longer sentences. It is operated by Her Majesty's Prison Service situated on the Caledonian Road in the Barnsbury area of the London which was opened in 1842 and is currently has a capacity of 1310 prisoners.
Two Acts of Parliament allowed for the building of Pentonville prison, designed by Captain Joshua Jebb, Royal Engineers, for the detention of convicts sentenced to imprisonment or awaiting transportation. Construction started on 10 April 1840 and was completed in 1842. The cost was £84,186 12s 2d.
It had a central hall with five radiating wings, all visible to staff at the centre. Pentonville was designed to hold 520 prisoners under the separate system, each having his own cell, 13 feet long, 7 feet wide and 9 feet high with little windows on the outside walls and opening on to narrow landings in the galleries. Pentonville became the model for British prisons; a further 54 were built to similar designs over six years and hundreds throughout the British Empire.
The prison also became an execution site following the closure of Newgate Prison in 1902. Condemned cells were added and an execution room built to house Newgate's gallows. It also became a training centre for future executioners. One hundred and twenty men were to be hanged at Pentonville between 1902 and 1961. Pentonville carried out the most 20th century British executions, many of them by Albert Pierrepoint.

People living with disabilities face challenges from society every day. With little or no support in most cases, these women and men push themselves out of their comfort zones to surpass those challenges and make an impact on the lives of those around them. In Belarus, UNDP initiatives support those making strides to find new ways to grow and excel.
Sergei, a member of the Republican Association of Wheelchair Users, was the brains behind a new sporting center in Grodno, Belarus, supported by UNDP. He wanted to create it to help people with disabilities socialize and have a sense of belonging in the community. He spends his time at the centre encouraging others and advocating for more support to improve it.

On 27 November 2019, the Appeals Chamber of the International Criminal Court (“ICC” or “the Court”), delivered its Judgment in the appeal of Mr Jean-Pierre Bemba Gombo against Trial Chamber VII’s ‘Decision Re-sentencing Mr Jean-Pierre Bemba Gombo, Mr Aimé Kilolo Musamba and Mr Jean-Jacques Mangenda Kabongo’ of 17 September 2018. The Appeals Chamber rejected all three grounds of appeal of Mr Bemba and confirmed the re-sentencing decision.
Here's the sentence I created with the photos I took.
The sentence says...

Mindless copying of sentences is not fun with handwriting. Nonetheless, to my amazement, it seems as though many primary schools in Hong Kong coerce their students into completing these cognition-effacing exercises.
If the objective of this book is to teach students to write letters, then logically, so long as a student can accurately reproduce each individual letter, there is no point in having them copy bunches of letters - words - within even greater bunches of letters - sentences - complete with capital letters and punctuation; so there must be another reason; and that students at this tender primary age must begin, sooner rather than later, the tedious rote learning process involving mindless copying and pedagogical dubiousness endemic to Hong Kong is my conjecture.
It's a shame that most Hong Kong primary school students aren't learning spelling strategies in English lessons - this is a Scholastic Book from the US - and instead are treated to beguiling calligraphy activities which treat English words as though they were Chinese pictograms, this whole-language English literacy approach being the absolute worst way to build a literacy base in a human being!
The transfer and multiplication of financial wealth, amongst the captains of educational publishing and the lieutenants of the education bureau, is not a conspiracy theory but a harmful, if not shameful, truth, a boy's father told me. He and his son both hate the skull-numbing reproduction of the Roman alphabet whose pedagogical value has yet to be substantiated by anyone!

Our innocent Schapelle today in tears after sentencing in Bali for 20
years.
A Bali court has sentenced our girl, Australian Schapelle Corby to 20
years in prison for trying to smuggle 4.1kgs of marijuana into
Indonesia.
Judges also fined Corby 100 million rupiah ($A13,875). Her lawyers
immediately said they would appeal. Prosecutors had sought a life
sentence.
"Longer sentence than the bali bombers? What did they get for their
hundreds of murders and lifelong injuries... two to three years.
That's your priorities for you.
The Indonesian police did not take fingerprints, nor take into account
vital evidence proving Corby's innocence. Many feel this is payback for
Australia's role as part of the Coalition of the Willing, bombing us
wasn't enough.
"I am devestated with the verdict of the Indonesian Courts for
Schapelle Corby. When the verdict was given, I fell into a bit of a
heap, but Schapelles strength made me gain my composure pretty quickly.
"I will continue to work with others to try and bring the girl home.
The Sentence Schapelle has recieved (sic) is absolutely bloody
disgusting - Australians need not travel to Bali or help Indonesia
anymore. They have done nothing for us or Schapelle. NO MORE HELPING
BALI - NO MORE MONEY FOR THEM
Where does our Government get off offering her the support of a QC
today after the vicious verdict was handed down.Too little too late for
our Indo bum sniffer PM.

In Boston, about 45 demonstrators, including a dozen speakers, out for Pvt. Manning on the day of her sentencing. A number of speakers took up the PVT Manning Support Network's call to urge people to sign the petition at pardon.privatemanning.org that calls on President Obama to issue a pardon. Other speakers expressed the view that this approach will be ineffective and that other approaches need to be considered. Everyone who spoke agreed that the 35 year sentence for acts of whistle-blowing is excessive. A number of folks discussed the issues with onlookers and passers-by.

24 year-old Charly Pitman, of Brislington, Bristol, was found guilty of riot following a trial at Bristol Crown Court in April. On 7th July 2022 she was sentenced to three years in prison.
During her trial jurors heard how she positioned herself at the front of the crowd challenging police officers as they attempted to separate them from the neighbourhood police station.
They were shown footage of her acting aggressively towards the officers, striking their shields and helmets, and were told her actions caused them and others to fear for their safety.
Judge Julian Lambert said Pitman made a conscious decision not to leave the riot and encouraged others to attack police officers. He added jurors decided quickly there was ‘no basis for self-defence’, as Pitman had claimed during the trial.
Including Pitman, those jailed for offences committed during the riot have been imprisoned for a combined total of 74 years and nine months.
